Type: advisorySources: OSV
* CVE-2026-3238: source4 WINS server NULL pointer dereference in nbtd_winsserver_register/query/release(); craft NBT packets with qdcount=0, arcount=0, or empty netbios addresses crash the nbt process on servers running `wins support = yes` (typical AD DC role). Fix dissolves direct variable initialization and adds NBTD_ASSERT_PACKET qdcount/arcount/length validation before any packet array dereference. - debian/patches/CVE-2026-3238.patch - CVE-2026-3238
